TestFlight tab missing from App Store Connect

After uploading a build to App Store Connect (.pkg) and clicking on the app to enter the app management, the "TestFlight" tab is missing. There is no documentation about what to do when the tab is missing -- it's as if it's always supposed to be there.


The only tabs available are "App Store", "Features", and "Activity".


Please help. What are we doing wrong?

You're not going to believe this... but the TestFlight tab is hidden in the HTML. It's there, but has a width of 0. If you inspect the HTML you can follow the link to TestFlight. But it's not there for you to actually click on.

Update: maybe we're not supposed to access TestFlight. When we visit the testFlight URL by typing it in the address bar, since the TestFlight bar is missing, "no builds" shows up. Even though we have a build. We actually have two builds that we uploaded via XCode's "Application Loader." What's going on?

Is there any chance you are working with a macOS app here? Testflight is only for iOS and tvOS.

Yes it is a MacOS app. How do we invite users to test a MacOS App before submitting it to the App Store? Is this something we can do using Apple’s ecosystem? It would be kind of counterintuitive to implement our own user credentials / testing tokens system when the final app doesn’t need it.
